A mind in synergy or turmoil? Wrangling with creative and academic practice

Wednesday 5th December  3:30-4:45  G11 3.56

In an academic setting where there is often a perceived divide between creative and research practice, is it possible to straddle the two pursuits? What are some of the pleasures and pitfalls of navigating these worlds? Are these activities at odds with each other or can one feed the other, and vice-versa? Academics and creative practitioners Tiffany Tsao, Patrick Allington, Jonathan Morley in discussion with Jose Dalisay.
